: According to OpenBSD CVS logs, zyd(4) was based on atu(4) and atu(4)
: was based on wi(4) in turn. Originally wi(4) was written by Bill

Well, maybe not. With so many transitive things the only commonality
between wi.4 and zyd.4 is the license. I doubt that's enough to
retain the copyright notice.
